Sir,
I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your Despatch No. 12
on the 5th February, on the subject of the Ordinance No. 11, 1869
respecting "Preemption Claims."
Under the circumstances stated to you I can understand that it may
be expedient tointroduce
introduce into that Ordinance any amendment providing a
summary mode of enforcing payment of the purchase money of preemption
claims which have been surveyed by the Government on the application of
the claimants instead of leaving it to be recovered by the ordinary
course of the Law.
